Waiver Free Period

I know there has been no announcement about it yet, but I wanted to post an opinion on the subject.

I believe the deadline for the waiver free period should coincide with the offseason free agency period, as not only will it be easier to remember two dates, but having both periods open during the same time frame will give everyone a chance to tweak their rosters however they like.

I believe this wouldn't benefit the league because people would just sign a heavy free agent and send down one at the same cost but that would get less points. I believe it also has to be after training camps as well because then people will know who necessarily to call up or leave down.

Sounds good

I was thinking about this and I was going to say we should have it after the first week of the regular season so we know which prospects will be sent down before their 10th game but with 2 way contracts now I don't think it will be that big of a deal I am happy with after training camp

This isn't really on the same topic but it sort of is, will we be able to sign 2 way contracts strait to our minor league roster during the FA signing? I think we should be able to because after teams fill up their rosters they might want to go out and get a few prospects signed to two-way deals and might have no room to fit them on their main roster and they will just be planning on sending them down to the minors anyways.

To clean it up at little

Can we sign two-way contract players strait to the minors?

If you sign a player to a 2 way deal, you will just have to notify you are sending them to the minors.

So have you guys agreed on when the waiver free period will happen. I suggest to have it either right after free agency or a week or two before the season starts.

It will be a week before season starts as then rosters will be set and such. And there is no exact date yet as the NHL schedule doesn't come out for awhile still.
